Preparation of the recipe for baked parmesan fries with homemade mayonnaise
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut into uniform-sized sticks.
In a large bowl, mix the potato sticks with the olive oil, grated Parmesan, chopped parsley, salt and pepper. The fries should all be well coated.
Spread the fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. To facilitate cooking, they must be distributed evenly.
Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, turning the fries halfway through cooking to brown them evenly.
Meanwhile, prepare the mayonnaise.
Preparation for homemade mayonnaise
Make sure the egg yolk is at room temperature. This will allow the mayonnaise to emulsify more easily.
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolk and Dijon mustard until smooth.
Add the oil very slowly in a continuous stream while whisking vigorously. This is a crucial step that will allow the mayonnaise to set. Continue adding oil until mayonnaise thickens.
Add the white wine vinegar or lemon juice and mix well.
Season the mayonnaise with salt and pepper. Mix again.
If the mayonnaise is too thick, add a little water to adjust the consistency to your preference.
Refrigerate the mayonnaise for at least 30 minutes before serving. It will thicken further as it cools.
Homemade mayonnaise will keep in the refrigerator for about a week in an airtight container.
Once the fries are cooked to perfection, serve hot with homemade mayonnaise on the side.
Enjoy your food !
